Sustainable living in comfort and nature

Green Turtle Gardens is an eco-friendly and unique house situated in the heart of the charming island of Sint Eustatius (locally called “Statia”). Built sustainably from repurposed shipping containers, steel beams, doors, and windows, and other materials, it features large decks that embrace the refreshing island breeze and scenic vistas. The house is equipped with modern conveniences like electricity, water, internet, and 3 air-conditioned bedrooms, while also embracing eco-friendly practices such as rainwater harvesting, greywater recycling for the garden, and passive ventilation.

Ground floor

On the lower level, you’ll find a cozy bedroom housed in a 20-foot container, with an ensuite bathroom with shower. There’s a large dining table on the covered patio with ceiling fans and overhead lighting and a breezeway leading to steps and ramps to the next level. Adjacent is a well-equipped kitchen and pantry within another 20-foot container. A separate utility room on the same level features a refrigerator, washing machine, and ample storage.

First floor

Upstairs, the master bedroom offers flexible bedding (king or two twins) and a stunning ocean view, along with a half bathroom. There’s also a smaller bedroom with a twin bed and its own half bathroom, as well as an outdoor shower. Spacious outdoor decks offer lots of room (over 600 square feet) for sunny or shady relaxation.

The upper level includes a spacious living room offering plenty of comfortable seating, ceiling fans, large windows for optimal air circulation, and beautiful panoramic views. The room is equipped with a coffee/snack counter, small refrigerator, tables with chairs, storage and access to an additional bathroom. Wireless internet service is available. For added convenience, the living room’s sectional sofa converts into a queen bed.

Roof deck

Accessible from the first floor via stairs, the covered roof deck offers a truly spectacular 360-degree view of the island. Hop in your hammock and admire the impressive sleeping Quill volcano, Boven National Park, lower town, the airport runway, surrounding seas, and neighboring islands. It’s the perfect spot for sunset gatherings: If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the elusive “Green Flash”!

Accessibility

The entrance to the property is on an unpaved but well-maintained private road, only a few meters down from the nearest paved public road. The plot is completely and securely fenced in and surrounded by trees to ensure your privacy (and to provide a home for green iguanas and other interesting creatures). There’s a wide rolling gate and plenty of parking space available on both levels of the house, with upper-level rooms accessible via a concrete ramp, or a paved path from the utility room around the rear of the home
